Trailing British rival Cal Crutchlow by 29 points, Eugene Laverty says he has to win this weekend
EUGENE LAVERTY says he has no option but to win at Brno in this weekend's World Supersport race. The Parkalgar Honda rider is 29 points behind Yamaha rival Cal Crutchlow. Laverty said: "I need to come back and win it at Brno, to beat Cal especially, and I think we can do it. We have improved a bit at the Imola tests. The main thing we worked on was the chassis setting. We tried a few things at Misano and Donington that didn’t quite work so we tried a different direction at the test and we got the feeling we wanted. We lost a bit of side grip in the previous two rounds but we have found it again at this test and kept the overall feeling of the bike. So I’m pleased to be heading to Brno with that.”
